It should be a game changer, right ?

 welcome back

my poker friend, Zagga, always thought I was an old git right from the off. To prove him right, it seems, I am taking early retirement. Yup, umpteen decades in the rail industry and enough is enough. Might as well "retire" while I have enough life left in me to spend my money before I shuffle off.

As for you advertisers .. take out our insurance, protect your loved ones .. you can fuck right off. Think I worked all those decades to leave a load of cash to others ? Fuck. Right. Off.

In theory, I should have more time on my hands, time to slum it at the virtual felt. Being older & wiser, I can now pick and choose what I want to play .... NLHE is not an option, lmfao.

Who knows, another post in 1.2 years and I might actually have played a virtual hand or two.

Stranger Things - part 1

 welcome back

This is more of "note to self" as opposed to a proper post.

Doing this, as Nathan said "During a downswing, I stuck graphs and charts on the walls, to remind myself, I "used" to be a proven winning player ! "

So, I had a look at the tournament tickets that I have on jokerStars. Turns out the joke is on me. I had an old "steps" tournament ticket. Surprised it was still valid. I won it 10 years ago. Seriously.

Ran with it and turned that $82 ticket into a 2nd place for $500 plus small change.
